(A) beating in unison and adopting (no contrast)

(B) they beat in unison while adopting (not parallel)

(C) beat in unison, and adopt (no contrast and also creates a rudimentary sentence error)

(D) beating in unison yet adopting

(E) even though they beat in unison and adopt (no contrast)

We need something to indicate the contrast between the similarity (beating in unison) and difference (adopting specialized orientations exclusive...)

To indicate contrast we need Yet here. Hence D.
